cheap digital speakers?

[BigRed]

im looking to buy some digital speakers but i dont have that much $$$ right now, lol. plus i dont want to spend over $200 on a set of computer speakers anyway.
any sugguestions?

Maybe look around for a set of Microsoft Digital80 USB speakers, they sound pretty decent

They retailed for $249 and I saw them on Ebay all the time for less than $50-100


Here's a few I saw on Ebay (http://search.ebay.com/search/search.dll?MfcISAPICommand=GetResult&query=Microsoft+Digital+Sound+System+80+&ht=1&st=2&SortProperty=MetaEndSort&category0=160&BasicSearch=)

Look into the new line from creative. I think the name of them is Creative Inspire 5.1. They retail for around $99.00 and are made for the audigy soundcards. It includes 5 satelite speakers rated around 7watts each and a wood sub at 18 watts. Had the chance to hear them and they rocked...for creative.

If we lived in a perfect world we would all be equipped with Klipsh Pro Media 5.1, some serious kicking speakers, for some serious dough.:p

The new Inspire 5.1 are not digital they are analog.

Red,

I think your mistaken, the Microsoft Digital Sound 80 software doesnt even work with anything over Win 98, with ME or XP you use the software from sound card, in fact you dont even need to plug them into the USB.

I was under the impression you wanted cheap pure digital sound.

I had the Msft Dig80's and I upgraded to Klipsch's but they will work and the software that come's with them doesnt have to be used, and it probably wont work if you have XP or ME as its incompatible.

Anyway I hope you find what your lookin for.

what about Boston Accoustics BA7500?
im using them ,they were from gateway and they were very cheap and its not hard to find them on ebay(i will admit im talking about here in australia ) as gateway closed down here and they sold the 4.1 speakers 'and yes they are digital' for $99au which is half for us.
they have great sound and a great subwoofer.anyway goodluck

[lonewolf1983]

yea i missed out on picking up those BA7500's when gateway closed down :(

Why go digital? Speakers are analog. Digitals speakers is just a fancy way of marketing speakers that are equiped with a DA converter. Plug your PC into your component & enjoy the sound.

LOL if it was a perfect world we'd toss all the different kinds of sh***y plastic speakers like those out the window, and use our home systems instead. mmm, real amplification! If only my floorstanders were shielded and fit on my desk!

heh, the magnet on my BP6s weighs more than an entire set of Promedias:)

The other night I was using my home speakers. Well the ones with my 5.1 Philips digital reciever.
